The whole thing was now very quickly starting to take shape. Then it was time to attach the two half circular pices as the jaws – easy enough but needed a steady hand. One hint though – be aware of the pressure or torque you’re using as you really don’t want one of the pieces to snap in the middle of things. The next bit, the beginning of the leg ‘chassis’ is clearly explained in the second building video and as you can see caused very few problems. We did luckily and were able to move on after a few minutes of drying time. The second video covers the gluing part and is quite straight forward – if you have the glue! The build video though demonstrates this very well so it focuses the mind for further on. The first part, attaching the watch face kind of sets the tone for this and you’ll need the watch repair tool with it’s little grooved end to get it to work. The pieces are still bagged inside the jiffy bags and as you can see there are also 3 more screwdrivers, a watch repair tool, and some tweezers – All gratefully received as it is a very small working environment. I’m just mentioning this in case you haven’t. The really good thing is they including plenty of spares in my build kit so we were able on the couple of occasions where we dropped a nut on the floor and couldn’t find it or snapped a watch ‘bar’ to carry on band complete the thing.Īlso whilst there are a plethora of tools included there was no glue (that may be down to what substances can be sent by post across borders IDK) but no worries as we had a tube of Loctite to hand. This is a really good ‘build’ for first timers or those with smaller hands as it’s quite a few less pieces but far more intricate.
A new touch for me so please be careful not to throw it out with the packaging. At the bottom of the package was a USB Stick that contained the 4 building videos. It arrived in a sealed cardboard box, and when opened held three smaller A5 sized jiffy bags with the components in each. It was time to sit down and, with the aid of my son (and his much smaller hands) put together this little Spider we’d purchased from Moyustore.įirst of all, the packaging needs to be mentioned. The campaign ends on the 9 th July 2016.This is a different kind of review I suppose – Father and Son doing a build together and as you can see building a fine-looking creature by the end of things. If you are interested in the Holo Clock you can get more information on the website of their Indiegogo campaign. In this kit the plastic parts are replaced by aluminium parts – electronic and motor stay the same as in the other kits. For some enthusiasts the kit for 200 Dollar may also be interesting.
#Awesome 3d clock plus
For 50 Dollars you get a complete kit with all parts required and for 60 Dollar you get the same kit plus the coloured parts in a second colour. You can print the parts on your own 3D printer or let somebody print them for you. If you invest 25 Dollar you will get a kit with all parts except for the 3D printed parts. Like in any other crowd founding campaign there is no guaranty therefore. And then they will hopefully produce the parts and send them to the people that have invested money. That means even when it does not reach its goal the project will get the money. The Indiegogo campaign has a flexible funding goal. It’s also not very expensive when you print the parts on your own. The here presented Holo Clock has a simple design and uses 3D printing only for all mechanical elements. If you can print the mechanical parts on your own the other parts are available as kit for 25 Dollar on Indiegogo. A Holo Clock is a special kind of watch and this one uses only 3D printed parts for the mechanical elements.
